The Paris According meeting will feature an opening and closing panel,
and presentations by the seven negotiating clusters. Each has been asked
to present the draft Paris Accord text for their cluster.

The focus will be on identifying areas where consumers and creative and
inventive communities can work closer together. Several of the clusters
will also present specific ideas about how the Paris Accord text might
be implemented in concrete ways, including specific proposals for
financing investments in knowledge as a public good.
